Damn.. It must have been a horrible experience Bizio.. :rolleyes:
Why the hell did you keep your PS2 if you dont like it?

Sell it.. use the money from the PS2 to buy your Xbox games.

But please stop with the sentimental horsecrap.

Watchdog...

Where do you live? How about inviting some of us for those partys you host?

;)
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

PS2 was used like a DVD in the first 6 months


It\'s funny, I never used my PS2 as a DVD player. Infact, not until today when I watched the making of MGS2! :)

Honestly, the PS2 gave me the most enjoyable gaming experience up until today (I owned NES, SNES, GB, Amiga, PSX, PC and today a PS2). Starting at launch with great games such as SSX and Timesplitters, it just got better after getting Rayman (great platformer), Z.O.E (plus the amazing MGS2 demo), then GT3 A-Spec (best racer ever), GTA3, J&D, Wipeout and now MGS2. Honestly, I love everything about the PS2 and MGS2 really blowed my mind (as did GT3 at the time). Currently I own 18 games with two more to come next month. Too good to be true. But to each their own I guess.. ;)

You guys could come, but I live in Canada and I doubt many of you do.  Btw, I just got an HDTV and surround sound setup and gaming has never been better!

BizioEE,

Your just like any other X-Box fanboy(even if you claim your not), but that\'s beside the point.  Your complaining about waiting for PS2 games when all your doing is waiting for those games to come out for X-Box.  People waited for an X-box version of THPS3 when the PS2 already had it, while we were enjoying the X-box zealots were waiting, and when it came out it wasn\'t as good as the PS2 version.  You can complain all you want, and brag about X-Box\'s specifications and graphics.  When it comes down to it, Sony\'s got M$\'s number on games, sales, and most importantly, satisfaction.

Note to reader:I own an X-Box, Gamecube, and PS2, and still buy more PS2 games than either other system combined.  Why do I have a 3 systems? So I can give a true, down-to-earth opinion.

At first PS2 games couldn\'t even compare to most DC games...it needed 2 years to get good games and about THPS3...if you take it like an example you\'re a fool...look at Crazy Taxi...it looks better on DC...

1 year and half ago I owned PSX,N64 and PS2...and I bought more PSX games than PS2 games...

...and in any case,it\'s your personal taste...buy the games you like the more poor fool...but it\'s only your ****ing taste...can you realize? :)

I would hardly call BizioEE a fanboy.  Just because he enjoys both systems does not make him biased.  On the other hand those that do own both and enjoy one more than the other have an opinion which should be respected.

I too own many more PS2 games than Xbox games, but each system has its own merits:  PS2 GTA3, FFX, DMC, etc - XBox HD, Halo, PGR, DOA3.  Obviously the list for the XBox isn\'t too big right now, but like BizioEE said, give it chance.

Funny, did you also know that Bizio doesn\'t own a Xbox yet? After knowing this, do you still respect his opinion? I honestly find it quite amusing how someone can praise a system to that extend without even... LOL... owning it.

And Seven, isn\'t is equally hilarious that you diss the xbox so much without even owning it.  Gotta love contradictions.

And whoever said that THPS3 is better on PS2 is smoking something very expensive--unless by better you mean lots of slowdown and poorer textures.

The only thing PS2 THPS3 has that the Xbox version doesn\'t is officially online;however, you can go online with the xbox version with gamespy.  Not as good granted, but adequate.

Boy, Mondays can really put a damper on your day.  Just look at BizioEE who\'s making assumptions about a system without even owning it.:rolleyes:

Then there\'s watchdog, who seems to jump on someone\'s case when he gets the chance.

Seriously, the only enjoyable game right now for the box is Halo,  at least that\'s the only thing I\'d prefer to my other library of games.

And yes BizioEE, unlike you, I own the system and can present an actual opinion.  So don\'t bite my head off for offering my feelings.

Sorry Billy, but I\'m only keeping people straight.

You said the xbox version of THPS3 is worse--clearly you\'ve never played it or even bothered to read a review.  You just hugged your PS2 and made a wish.

And seriously, your opinion about the xbox\'s lineup doesn\'t hold much weight given your previous statement.

It\'s the badge of the new fanboy to say "Oh, and before you call me biased I own [enter list of disputed consoles]."  Just because someone says something, doesn\'t make it true--see your post about THPS3.  Have a nice Monday.

Btw, "faker" isn\'t a word.
